Part of Lesson Plan: Computer Assembly
Activity Overview / Details
Once the computer is fully assembled the team must call the instrutctor over again so the instructor can perform a visual inspection and make sure the computer is assembled properly. Annotate the team score on the rubric and annotate the fact that the team finihsed the project.
OPTIONAL
If you have enough time and equipment you can have the students switch roles. The note taker will now be the technician. Another twist would be to have the team work on a different model of computer.
